"The people prefer using their MT in the home, in the field, and with friends of the same age. But the youth from... Mundabli... speak Pidgin as well as their MT with friends of the same age. Mundabli speakers explain that it is the educated youth who speak Pidgin with their friends. People from all of the villages speak Pidgin at the regional market at Abar... Within the schools, the language of choice during recess differs among the villages visited. In Missong, Mekaf, Mbu’, Abar, and Mundabli villages, children speak the MT while on break. Children speak English in the classroom in all the villages with the exception of Mundabli where Pidgin is used in the classroom. English is the language of instruction
in all schools in Lower Fungom."

"Mundabli speakers say that Mufu people speak exactly the same as they do while Bu people speak with slight differences. They have MT-MT interaction with both groups. A child of six understands Bu and Mufu... Mundabli people say they understand Missong and Mashi, but they choose to interact in Pidgin... Mundabli express interest in learning to read and write Kom, as doing so would help them in their trade with the Kom people... More than half of the children in every village attend primary school with the exception of Mundabli where very few attend school at all... All villages have a committee for development. Most of the activities of the committee are limited to road building and maintenance as this is such a great need. The committees of Mekaf, Bu, and Mundabli have water development projects and school building projects in addition to road maintenance. The people in general appear self-motivated and willing to work hard for development. Some, of their own accord, even expressed an interest in starting a language committee, although they also said their lack of available funds is a concern."

"It seems likely that the linguistic variety spoken in Buu is a distinct, though closely related, language from the varieties spoken in Mundabli and Mufu."
